To clean your Prios, hand wash with warm water, mild soap and allow them to air dry. We do not recommend putting the Prio in the washing machine or dryer.
It’s not. But the breathable mesh upper should help it dry quickly if you get them wet.
Practically anything. The Prio is our first “performance” shoe.
It’s great road running, light trail running, walking, hiking, working out, Crossfit, biking, slacklining… it’s obviously up to you. Once you get them on, I’m sure you’ll do things we never thought of (and we want to see pictures of that!).
Put on your Prio and Live Life Feet First!
I’ll admit, this is one of my favorite things about the Prio.
The huarache-sandal inspired heel strap can be used to hold your heel and ankle in place. Pull the straps through the ankle holes in the sole, and then lock them in place with the laces.
The instep straps can be used to secure your instep, which can free up your toes and forefoot to relax and function better. Use the laces to tighten or loosen them to your liking.
The Prio is our best-selling “do almost anything” shoe — running, hiking, working out, you name it.
With a durable upper, it provides a bit more protection.
The Speed Force is our lightest, “most barefoot” shoe.
More feedback as you step and a mesh upper that holds like a glove, you get a “barely there” experience.
The HFS is lighter than the Prio, more rugged than the Speed Force.
The HFS’s sole has a tire tread-inspired sole that’s made to handle roads and have extra traction.
The huarache-inspired midfoot and instep straps are “hiding” behind a protective welded material.
And the moisture wicking lining for extra comfort and breathability.
Shoe sizing, especially online, is not a perfect process. That’s why we have a free exchange policy.
For EU/UK sizing, there’s a conversion chart at the bottom of the Prio product description.
The Prio fit true to size. We recommend going with your usual athletic shoe size.
Also, the Prio is wider than conventional running shoes.
Sizing for a shoe is different than a sandal, so if you own one of our sandals, that doesn’t mean you’ll pick the same size in the Prio, so use the measuring info if you can.
Keep in mind, though, that because the foot is three-dimensional, any two-dimensional measuring tool, such as a ruler or Brannock device®, can only approximate your true shoe size. Manufacturers model their shoes on different foot shapes, which is why you might be an 8 in one brand and a 9 in another. And then, there’s personal preference: three people with identical feet might think the same shoe fits differently.
If your foot is wide and larger than a women’s 7.5, you may want to check out the “men’s” Prio. The conversion between men’s and women’s is 1.5, so a women’s 8 is the same as a men’s 6.5.
We do! We’ve sold Xero Shoes to people in more than 85 countries around the world.
We use the US Postal service to send our shipments. The cost to ship will depend on the weight of the package and the delivery speed you select; several options will be provided at checkout.
All domestic shipments come with tracking. Limited tracking is available for some first class international shipments depending on the country, and full tracking is available with all Priority Express and Express International shipments.
Though almost all of our international orders arrive without incident, we strongly advise you to select Priority Express International or Express International if you live in a country with a less reliable postal service, including (but not limited to) India, Brazil, Mexico, South Africa, and Indonesia. We cannot guarantee delivery of packages shipped using First Class International.
International delivery can take anywhere from 3 days to 8 weeks depending on how long your order spends in customs at the border.
Please note that some countries do require the payment of import duties for international shipments above a certain value. We advise you to know the import regulations of your country and understand that you will be responsible for payment of any duties and fees imposed by your government at the border.
All packages will be marked as merchandise; as a commercial shipper, we are not able to mark a package as a gift (if you’re giving Xero Shoes as a gift, that’s not the same as us sending a gift).
Also, check our Stores page. There may be a Xero Shoes dealer closer to you.
After you purchase a gift certificate, you’ll be able to enter an email address for the recipient.
You could email it to yourself and forward it at a later time if you like.
You can also take the Gift Certificate code and send it to the recipient.

USI’m a nurse and work 12 hour shifts!! Tried several different pairs of all the “popular “ shoes and by far these are the best. No leg pain no foot pain!
USI am in love with my new Xero tennis shoes! I am on my feet throughout my work day and I a live a very active lifestyle. My Brooks were good for knee support (I've had 3 knee surgeries), however at the end of the day my feet were killing me. Since making the switch to Xero shoes, my feet are happy campers when I remove my tennis shoes at the end of the day. 12/10 recommend!!
USFirst pair of Xero shoes, definitely not the last!!! Sooo comfortable and lightweight.
USI am enjoying these shoes so much- my balance has improved, and I’m used to wearing them now. With the temps on the rise, I’m beginning to wear them without socks now. Next up…trying them as daily work-out, walking shoes. Haven’t walked a couple of miles in them yet, so I’m curious to see how my feet feel.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience with our shoes! We're thrilled to hear that they have improved your balance and that you're adjusting well to wearing them. With the warmer weather, going sock-free can be a great way to stay comfortable. We're excited for you to try them out as your daily workout and walking shoes. Please let us know how they perform on your longer walks; we believe you'll love them just as much!
USI felt like I was constantly dropping $100 + on shoes without finding the right shoe. I'd have my foot "mapped" and still not have good luck. Last year I bought a pair of these Xero trail shoes at Zion Ragnar but didn't wear them for what ever reason. I purchased the Prio shoes for a High Intensity workout class I go to. I was amazed that my feet didn't hurt even a little bit. I decided to wear the trail shoes I had purchased the year before. WOW! I am a believer in these shoes. No Blisters. My arches don't hurt! everything was great and it was the best running experience I've had.
